Happy New Year! The start of a new year brings a lot of that 'new year, new you" messaging that we've all seen before. We like to think it's not about becoming new, it's about becoming you. Let's start with the foundation: your skin.
Winter skin often falls into two camps: dry and oily. Each one needs different TLC. Oily skin still needs moisture (yes, we're serious) as well as a toner. Dry skin needs extra moisture from a serum packed with vitamins.
Our collection can help. Hand-crafted, plant-based skincare developed for all skin-types as a healthy foundation for beautiful makeup.
“Our skincare collection is a very easy system to use. There’s one cleanser for all skin types. Our products feature plant-based ingredients. The whole range is clean, paraben-free and not overactive. A lot of people are very sensitive and there’s a lot of harsh chemicals, like Benzoyl Peroxide and Salicylic, that are irritating and in ames the skin unnecessarily. Less is more when it comes to skincare. Products that work in combination with the nest ingredients to make them.” - GIELLA
All Skin Types: Cleanse
Our Vitamin E Cleansing Gel will work for both dry and oily skin, as well as take off your eye makeup. It's gentle formula is ideal for oily skin as it won't over-dry and irritate. Dry skin needs exfoliation and you can save a step in your routine and skip additional exfoliation products as we've added Vitamin E beads into the cleanser. When they hit water, they will emulsify and leave your skin feeling hydrated.
All Skin Types: Hydrate & Prime
We love products that do more then one thing, so we created our Vitamin C + Ginseng Serum to moisturize and prep skin for color. Dry skin will soak up the vitamins to help provide extra moisture. This will help oily skin balance from over-drying and flaking. Use this serum before your bb cream or foundation.
Oily Skin: Tone
If your skin is oily, try a toner. They help clean out pores and tackle any blackheads and breakouts that may be flaring up from oil production. Our Vitamin C Toner combines the effect of floral and plant infusions with the soothing properties of chamomile to provide a refreshing coolness and gentle stimulation.
Dry Skin: Cocktail of Oils
One of our favorite cocktails: Jojoba Oil, Avocado Oil, Grapeseed Oil, Vitamin E and Grapefruit Essential Oil. Cocktail of Oils goes right into the skin, giving it a natural glow without being too heavy. Avocado Oil offers both superior lubricating and skin-nourishing qualities with its deep penetration and high levels of essential skin-care vitamins such as A, D, E and K. Avocado oil has the highest penetration rate of any plant oil. Grapeseed Oil is a good choice for those with nut allergies.
All Skin Types: Rejuvenate at Night
Step up your nighttime routine and heal skin while you sleep. Renouveau is our Glycolic Acid and Japanese Green Tea formula that counters the effect of photo damage and premature aging while it accelerates the removal of dead skin cells. It is 10% Glycolic acid with a 3.5% ph formula, making it gentle with no burning. This "green cream" works at night to balance skin, calming redness and reducing fine lines.
We created our GIELLA Essentials Sample Kit so that you can try the best of the skincare collection at home. Find something you love? You'll find a 20% offer code inside for the full-size version. New kits and boxes are released each season to let you try before you make the leap!
